You need to set your input to record from LINE and volume at line level (0dB), and set the mixer to line level (no red) output. Make sure your cables aren't near any power cables. And use a decent audio recording software (i.e. Cool Edit, or any straight to raw/WAV recording software), Ableton is for sequencing.Quote:

and do you mean record the set in live and edit in cool edit or sound forge
Normally the jack socket marked in green is LINE.Quote:
